Galaxy S3 Watering Hole

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately of giving a Samsung a go of it BUT I've been reading of signal problems with the GSIII and that's why I didn't but the Nexus when it came out. I only have 3g where I live. I use my phone for business so it needs to work all the time. Dropped calls, can't connect, blah blah blah means lost money for me. I don't wan't to back thru 9000 something post's to see what y'all think. Everyone's probably thinking 'who's that guide. he just come outta left field'. :eek: If you've ever bought/sold or traded something, chances are you know me. ;)

So could I get some honest opinion's.

Thanks

Had it since international release, so longer than some, but with each update, things like battery life and reception got better. Just waiting to see how JB improves it, but this is all UK based mate. Obviously there will be differences between countries / carriers, but I'm sure on the whole it'll turn out to be reliable for ya.

Hey bobcat, welcome to the S3 hole.:)

Haven't heard any of the complaints about poor reception here like the GNex hole. I think the S3 uses different hardware.

yes! I'm finally home, but got another early day tomorrow :( i'm subbing for the other teacher. hopefully no students will come :D (since it's a make-up class, students aren't required to attend). then i have to attend something in the afternoon for school.

just to clear things up: i'm in university getting my second undergraduate degree after finishing my first one. i'm currently working part-time teaching basic japanese at a language school, and just for this term, i was offered to work at the university. it's been pretty tiring so far. only the second week and i don't want to see those faces anymore, lol. i think i might become a coffee drinker because of this...

i'm single and looking :D
